Our family met Diane through our daughters preschool (Prince of Peace). Diane's spunk and tenacity and her ability to over come adversity was clear from our first meeting. I have never admired a single mom as I have Diane. Thank you Diane for always remembering my B-day, I love and miss you. Cody and Lauren, please know if you need us we're there for you. Rest in his loving light Diane. Dona, Rick, Kenneth & Elyssa

We met Diane through my brother Bob. What a beautiful person she was. We were fortunate to have her as a friend in the short time before the Lord called her to His table. Her beautiful smile and awesome personality will always be remembered! May the Lord continue to watch over and guide her children through this trying time. Our condolences to the family.

My sincere sympathy goes out to Diane's family. Cody & Lauren were truly blessed to have a Mom that worked so hard to provide for them. I had the privlege of working with Diane at Oscar's. Diane was a very good Mom, hard worker, loving friend and always had an optomistic outlook even when things were rough. I will miss her smile , hugs and energy. Those of us that knew her were blessed by her love.
Love your friend ,

To Diane's family and friends: I had the priviledge to grow up with Diane. She was a cheerful and really nice person. We use to walk home from Kindergarten together when her mom was working and she stayed at the Nolte's. I know that she will be missed. Your family will be in my prayers. God Bless all of you.

I went to school with Diane from kindergarten and all the way thru high school. She was a great friend. I know we all had a super time at a 7th grade Halloween party at her house when she was probably 12 or 13 years old. Diane's parents let us all stay and party an exta hour due to the time zone change. She will be missed by all in the Class of 1981 NVHS.

First let me say how sorry I am about Diane's passing , I would like to let Rick and the kids know that my thoughts and prayers are with them as well as the rest of the family I wish that I would have gotten to know diane even better than I did We always tried to stop and see her and rick when we were vacationing in CO. I grew up in seneca and got to know diane when her and rick started dating She was about the same age as my brother Mike, She always seemed bubbly and energetic had a sterling personality I will miss her. If there is anything I can do for any of you please let me know and god bless all of you during this difficult time.

I had the pleasure of meeting Diane several years back. Diane had a positive attitude no matter how difficult the situation and always had a smile on her face. I was fortunate to have known someone like her, and I will cherish the great times we shared. She will be terribly missed by everyone who knew her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, especially for Cody and Lauren.
May your memories bring you comfort.
God Bless,
Linda, Allyssa, and Ryan
